Cable tray cover Baks PKR50/2 50×2000 mm, steel 0.5 mm

Baks PKR50/2 cable tray cover is a steel panel sized 50×2000 mm with a thickness of 0.5 mm designed to close open cable trays and protect cables in industrial and commercial installations. The cover provides a continuous protective surface that reduces exposure to dust and accidental contact while keeping wiring routes neat and accessible for maintenance. It is compatible with cable trays that accept 50 mm wide covers and is intended for use where a low-profile, rigid cover is required.

Advantages

The steel construction delivers mechanical protection against impacts and compressive forces while maintaining dimensional stability along the full 2000 mm length. A 0.5 mm thickness balances rigidity with lightweight handling for easier installation. The slim 50 mm width is suitable for narrow tray runs where space is limited. The cover helps limit dust ingress and reduces the risk of accidental contact with live conductors when installed correctly.

Suitable for

• Covering and protecting cables in narrow open cable trays with 50 mm cover slots
• Commercial and light industrial electrical wiring routes
• Areas where dust reduction and basic mechanical protection are required
• Environments requiring low-profile, rigid tray covers for neat cable management

Key specifications

• Material: steel
• Width: 50 mm
• Length: 2000 mm
• Thickness: 0.5 mm
• Finish: metal (uncoated or factory standard finish as supplied)

How to use

Place the cover onto the compatible cable tray ensuring it aligns with the tray edges and sits securely within the tray's cover supports or flange. For continuous runs, butt covers end-to-end or overlap according to the tray manufacturer's guidance to maintain a protective barrier. Secure covers with appropriate fasteners or clips if required by the tray system and local regulations. Inspect the installed cover to confirm there are no sharp edges contacting cables and that access points for inspection or cable entry remain accessible.

Usage recommendations

Use the cover with matching 50 mm tray profiles and follow the cable tray system manufacturer's instructions for fastening and grounding. Avoid exposing the thin steel panel to corrosive environments unless appropriate corrosion protection or treatment is applied. For applications requiring enhanced protection, consider thicker or fully enclosed tray systems.
